Yes, Paul Ryan, You ARE Playing Word Games

Paul Ryan didn't exactly endorse Donald Trump today. He said he'll "be voting" for him. Which is something no one can ever check.

And he tweeted the news, natch. Much easier — no pesky questions that way. But here are just a few:

When is the official endorsement? Will they appear together at a Trump "show"? Will Ryan be on the podium in Cleveland, raising arms with Trump and his VP in a show of unity? Will he make sure that the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee and the Trump campaign join forces to save the House? Will he hit the Sunday-morning talk show circuit to talk up the entire Republican ticket, top to bottom? Will there be a Ryan-Trump office in Racine and Janesville this fall?

And a billion other queries, which, by the way, Republicans have always asked of Democrats when they want to join them at the hip to their Presidential nominee. We cats HISS.

Welcome!

Welcome to My Cats Are Democrats, a political blog written entirely by cats.

Why cats? Because the sorry state of human discourse requires the Animal Kingdom to step up and provide a new, refreshing take on current affairs. And cats sit at the very top of that kingdom.

We’re well aware of the popular stereotypes — that “cats are Democrats while dogs are Republicans.” But the cats who write this blog really are Democrats. What animal in its right mind wouldn’t be, after the way Republicans have behaved since Obama was elected?

Pundit Profiles

Baxter (no relation to the spokescat for Meow Mix) was named after Jack Lemmon's character in "The Apartment." Although Baxter keeps his sexual orientation private, he is an FIV-positive kitty with a keen interest in gay rights.

Guest blogger Miss Kubelik also owes her moniker to that classic Billy Wilder film. As a former outdoor cat, Miss K provides trenchant political commentary from outside the Washington bubble, looking in.

Sniffles' issues are equality for women and climate change, although she seems to think she can escape global warming by hiding under a blanket. If Sniffles doesn’t agree with something you say, she’ll probably pee on you.

Zamboni is a hockey fan (of course). She follows Canadian and American politics, and is a zealous protector of English grammar. Zamboni's favorite things include clean litter boxes and Bush being out of office — two items she considers related.
